This is where your Sims can go to hang out and buy dating-related paraphernalia. There are several restaurants ranging from the diner-style to the more up-market fish place  as well as a beach area  memorial park  and a couple of malls.Here you have to find a suitable Sim and start chatting them up. To help you out there are over 40 new interactions and interests. These are like the sReduces cooking  mechanical  etc. and are listed in a new menu denoted by the speech bubble. You can see exactly what your Sim is into and will talk about  and you can improve these by making your Sims more well read with magazines bought in the mall.Once you have charmed your opposite number  its time to ask them on a date. There are now two relationship meters  one for your long-term relationship with this Sim and one for that particular encounter. How high these are will determine whether you get knocked back or not; but  if you do manage to get their phone number  when you return home you will see that you are able to call them and invite them downtown for a date. If only reality was that easy.In terms of new items  there are loads of furniture and decorative schemes that are themed around the downtown area. For the Casanova Sim  there is a heart-shaped hot tub and  of course  there are some new skins so that you can introduce new faces into your town.You can also edit the downtown area by creating your own buildings. You have free rein to create a dating arena extraordinaire as there is no budget.
